Description

Codx.io Discord

Alex's Caves Continued is a continuation of Alex's Caves by AlexModGuy, the same six enormous, hand-authored cave biomes, the same 43 mobs and 350-odd blocks, brought forward to Minecraft 1.20.1 through 26.2 and to Fabric and NeoForge alongside Forge.

Nothing about the mod's content has been changed. It is the original mod, ported, same biomes, same mobs, same recipes, same progression, same cave book.

Server tools — /acc

Alex's Caves shipped with ~200 config options and no way to reach them without stopping the server and editing a .toml by hand. This continuation adds a command tree for the ones that matter, and a chest-style admin menu that works from a vanilla client:

/acc menu — a paged menu of 39 gameplay and quality-of-life settings, grouped over seven pages: Status, World Generation, Mobs, Blocks, Items & Potions, Cave Tablet Loot and Vanilla Changes. Click to toggle, click to step a number, save without a restart.
/acc config — the same settings as text, for anyone who'd rather type. /acc config all lists every one; /acc config <page> lists one group.
/acc biomes — which of the six cave biomes are enabled, and how rare each one is.
/acc reload — re-read the biome generation settings without a restart.
/acc version — versions, loader, and an update check.

Everything except version and help is operator-only, and the menu is served entirely from the server — your players don't need anything installed beyond the mod itself.

What "Continued" means

Alex's Caves shipped for Forge on Minecraft 1.20.1 only. This project brings the identical mod to 58 builds, every Minecraft version from 1.20.1 to 26.2, on all three loaders that shipped for it.

Content is untouched. No rebalancing, no additions, no removals, every block, mob, biome and recipe behaves exactly as it did. If you played the original, this is that. The only things added are server-side tools (/acc, above) and bug fixes; neither changes what you find underground.
Citadel is built in. The original required Citadel as a separate download; that code is bundled here, so there is one less dependency to keep in sync.
Every version is a real port, not a manifest bump — the mod's 66 mixins are verified against each Minecraft version's actual bytecode, and each build is checked on its own.

Requirements

Required dependency CodxLib — install the file matching your Minecraft version and loader Citadel Not needed. It's bundled. Sides Client and server — this is a content mod, so both need it

Install the Alex's Caves Continued file and the CodxLib file for your exact Minecraft version and loader, and drop both in mods.

A dash means that loader never released a build for that Minecraft version, so there is nothing to install there — it isn't a limitation of this mod.

Alex's Caves is AlexModGuy's work — the biomes, the mobs, the art, the music, the design, all of it. This project exists to keep that work playable on current Minecraft and on every loader.
